One day I'll write about the "tech savior complex" and why more VCs, Startups, and more Z isn't the solution for everything including fixing government. One day.

And finally, in case your mysteriously murderous grocery store assailant is more realistically armed with say a banana, please consult Monty Python. Their research seems thorough although I haven't had a chance to replicate it yet.

Disclaimer: I haven't tested this method against throwing axes. It's probably safe in a world with high resolution collision detection. Otherwise, they may be able to get a full backswing through the cart and then start hacking their way through it.

I ran a test in my dream last night and think this should work IRL. If someone attacks you with throwing knives or stars in a grocery store then you should charge at them with an empty grocery cart.

@klarabinon @rothgar @buckmelter I like to say, when you're new, you're an expert in what it's like to be new, which means you get to call out everything not easily discoverable or reliable in the docs and everyone else has to fix it immediately because this is the only expertise we lose over time.

I baked an apple pie. I’ve got like a thousand apples in my backyard tree and this took 6. I don’t think I can bake or eat 165 more while they’re ripe. Help!

This headline reminds me of the time my friend’s mom pitched a fit when she found out my mom made us tandoori for dinner because her precious daughter was a picky eater with a delicate tummy and my mom calmly replied “she seems fine maybe it’s your cooking”

@LenyHRWagner @Unmagical_Girl @mcdrawsincafes @AlishaRai Lol - yeah - there's even a parenthetical: "(and disproportionately Episcopalian)" in the Wikipedia page! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/White_Ang…

@RayNaCorp @charityanas @LegalStacey Right back at ya! Thanks for sharing your insight and experience and all the thoughtfulness you're putting into privilege, motivation, and results.

I'm also very open to ditching this project and helping with others that are further along with the same goals, so please don't hesitate to mention any alternatives you know of (regardless of whether you've had a chance to check them out)!

I put most of my energy into documenting all the things it doesn't handle well because let's be honest, git itself is hacky.

I've done this in a couple repos, but need a script to hit them all. Maybe I'll make one that uses the API to do it all at once...

I'm no expert, but I just renamed the main branch for my current project from "master" to "main". What I did: $ git branch -m master main $ git push origin main adjust github as below $ git push origin :master Then on other copies: $ git checkout main $ git branch -d master

@tyrekshepard I don't have experience on either side of a procurement department, but I can relate to switching departments (analytics to engineering) and being like, "oh, now I understand - I'm sorry" (both ways).

@ELAdepartmentAR @Freeyourmindkid @Washerein17 @MalcolmNance Yes, please (if it doesn't violate any protections)! DMs open :)
